In the Junagadh case, while opposing Azhari's bail plea on Wednesday, LCB in charge Inspector J J Patel told chief judicial magistrate that Rs 52 lakh were deposited in the bank account of Al-Amaan Education and Welfare Trust, run by the cleric, in 2023.
Azhari was arrested from Mumbai on Sunday in connection with a separate hate speech case lodged at Junagadh on Saturday, and brought to Ahmedabad by a team of the Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad. From Ahmedabad, he was taken to Junagadh.
